my 4 year old has been diagnose with ADHD. He was prescribed Dex Amp 5mg. He just started, I went online to see if I could find out some more about this medication before I administered and there was really no information. My son is very smart in school he just can not sit still for more that 2 secx. Please help should he be diagnose as ADHD and should I give him the medicine.
Only by trying the medicine on your son, can you see if it has any effect on his problems.
Our pages about ADHD contain information about use of stimulants like Dex Amp for the treatment of ADHD. See the links under the title "Treating ADHD with medicines" in our ADHD link list. Our pages talk about Ritalin and Concerta, but they are similar drugs to Dex Amp.
